For Sale: NEW Hydra 240 lv

[morewattsnow]

This is a brand new Hydra 240 lv I just received from Castle as a warranty replacement for one that burned up. DON'T run these higher than 4s- see the attached photo of the burned up unit that was run on 6s- I'm pretty sure they didn't repair it- LOL. $200 plus actual shipping costs. Never sold on this forum before, but I have a spotless record on Ebay as Mikekaw900. I can e-mail you a copy of the warranty receipt from Castle. Paypal only, E-mail me at [email protected]. Thanks- Mike

Do these not like anything more then 4s? Do a lot of people burn these esc's up?

Castles are famous for nuking if used above 4S.....search the forums and you can find lots of info...that being said, they are a great 4S controller and a new one for 200 bucks is a good deal.

They work well on 5s also.l

In addition to that statement folks need to be reminded that CC does not warranty the 240LV ESC when used above 4S even though its a 6S controller.
But you will find folks using this ESC, I ran 5S for awhile (months), over the 4S warranty limit with success. Sorry to detract from your ad but these are still very good controllers. I own more of them then any other speedo and couldnt be happier. I know Brian Bruaas (Snowman) really likes this speedo too. Good luck with the sale.

add some extra caps on the esc and you can run this esc with 6s a 200 A. no problem.
just some things you have to keep in mind:
add the extra caps, don´t drive too much part load and make the wires as short as possible. disable the BEC while you use mor then 4s.

I use this esc on a 1521 neu running in a MHZ Mystic. x447 with brand new zippy flightmax for more then 1 year. no problems.

Actually, Castle warranteed this controller and I was very specific about running it on 6s. They are very concerned about the mah rating of your setup though- they want you to use 8500-10000 mah on high power setups.

agreed I run my Q sport hydro on 5s2p with a 240 LV a 1527 1.5d, x457 prop!
